Update BusLogic driver's messaging system to use `pr_cont' for continuation lines, bringing messy output:
If reasonably possible it is best to avoid use of pr_cont().
If there are concurrent writes from multiple cpu I believe the writes still get separated. (Something has to give...)
For instance I've seen concurrent 'oops' generate the list of loaded modules one module per line with the two lists interleaved!
Quite often one of the %p[A-Z] modifiers can help.

I know, however for that the whole driver's messaging system would have to be redesigned. Joe (cc-ed) has offered to do it with the original iteration, however I believe consensus has been it will best be done as a separate follow-up change, while this small fix can be easily backported.

NB this driver may not see a lot of SMP use as I reckon it's had some portability issues, and in any case the hardware requires port I/O which precludes its use with some of the most recent PCIe systems which do not support PCI I/O cycles anymore. And older systems were often UP. Not that the driver should not be kept in a clean style of course.
